If you have selected to show the transcode folder, it will show up in all plugin folders (file system, iTunes etc.). For media library folders it has been deleted on purpose (but might become configurable sometime). For now you have to manually add such a folder wherever you want it to show up. To have a folder looking exactly like the transcode one, you can to this:- Create a new folder with name #Transcode#- Set the file display mode to folder- Create a new view- add a 'File' to the root folder- Select 'Multiple file selection', to add the same files as shown in the original transcode folder (this uses the exact same code)Now you've configured one folder to show a transcode folder. To add it to others, you can copy (ctrl+c) and then paste it (ctrl+v) as often as you want

Cool Plugins will be supported in the next release. Nothing should have changed regarding the engine that is being used, but as I'm always using mencoder, I might have missed something. Anyone else can confirm this behavior?

If you always wanted to have your most recent videos at the top of the folder in the ps3 or wished you could group all videos with the same genre in one folder, have a look at pms-mlx

It does indeed work for file system folders thank you, but i cant seem to get it working with the media library with the manual way you described. It displays all the files in folders form and then as soon as i select the folder it just tells me that it is empty.

Does it show another engine name when you use the original pms with the same files?I haven't changed anything on purpose that would influence this behaviour compared to the original pms.

Have you reached the max folder depth that is 8 for the ps3? If not you might have found a bug; please have a look in the media library logs (<application_dir>/logs) and check if you see error messages or post them here.

Haven't had a chance to do alot of testing lately, but on the most up to date and the other PMS it only shows [mencoder] when needed, my avi etc dont show it, and also I don't think it is using tsmuxer either(have to double check that), wont have a chance to test more till the weekend. Ill get back to you then. Ta.
